Mafia themes

Added another town and mafia role = Jailor + Blackmailer. Also tweaked the town investigative 3 (sheriff/investigator/lookout). Weak individually but strong together if they can get together. If they can stay alive long enough! Yup there might seem to be lynch affordability, but theres a chaos element, with the vetren who could kill a whole bunch of players if they all happen to visit him when he is on alert! The vigilante could mess up and then die of guilt himself. an added mafia might balance it up a bit. If 4 seems a lot, don't forget there is a serial killer that is feared by all!. Mafia has yet to win on d12. 10 town / 4 mafia (that know eachother) 3 neutrals [spoiler] [b][size=18]TOWN of TOKEN[/size][/b] Earn lots tokens!!! [img]http://www.dicepatch.com/images/tot.png[/img] A game of murder, deception, lying and mob hysteria. Town of Token is a d12 forum role playing game that challenges players on their ability to convincingly lie as well as detect when other players are lying. Players are divided into two main alignments – Town & Mafia but there are 3 neutral players also. [color=green]10 TOWN[/color] - [color=red]4 MAFIA[/color] - [color=purple] 2 NEUTRAL[/color] - [color=blue]1 SERIAL KILLER[/color] Neutrals/Serial Killer are loners with objectives for their win clause. Serial Killer is a threat to both, and the remaining Neutrals in this game can sway either way throughout the game to meet their objective. Only the 4 Mafia will 100% know eachother. Mafia and Serial Killer kill each night, but the Town and Neutrals can protect eachother if they can manage to work together. The problem is, no-one in the town knows eachother and they could be Mafia or a Serial Killer! This role playing game has 2 phases, which are [b]DAY[/b] and [b]NIGHT[/b]. [spoiler=Basic Video Tutorial][youtube]HExlcWsuB98[/youtube][/spoiler] [b]Discussion[/b] partakes throughout both phases either the forums or in private message. The moderator must be included in every discussion if it's private. eg: create a message and Add recipient: Hoodlum to a conversation. The moderator will only view the chat and answer IF there is a question that needs to be clarified and is able to answer where it doesn't give an advanatgeous clue or whatever. The moderator will therefore not answer all questions. The answers you seek are from the other players and what is written by the moderator in the forums. [i]The moderator is just watching the game unfold and will be giving out MVP awards and such at the end of the game[/i] The [b]DAY[/b] phase is where the Town come together and choose to lynch the threats to Token Town. Each player can vote against one user in an effort to get them lynched (eliminated) out of the game. The majority of lynch votes against a user gets them eliminated. After a player is eliminated their role is revealed. Was s/he a threat to the Town or was s/he innocent? When choosing to lynch a player, type [b]LYNCH[/b] USERNAME. [i](Replace USERNAME with a players name).[/i] To change your mind type [b]UN-LYNCH[/b] USERNAME. You can choose to vote [b]NO LYNCH[/b]. You can choose to abstain from lynching all together. [i]*If NO LYNCH votes outnumber LYNCH votes for the most voted player, then there is no lynch. If there is a tie with any of the majority, there is no lynch.[/i] Then the [b]NIGHT[/b] phase occurs where you use your night actions. Each role has a night action. Some roles are limited to when they choose which nights, others are every night. Types of roles are, Killing, Investigative, Distraction and Defensive. Most night roles have a target. In this case, send a private message to the moderator and type [b]TARGET[/b] USERNAME. [i](Replace USERNAME with a players name).[/i] Other roles that don't have a target will be explained by the moderator when you receive your role.

The new casino was his idea and now he has to live with the consequences. The casino has brought in a lot of [color=green]$$[/color] for the town, but it has attracted with it the evil Mafia. The Mayor is in a tough spot, he want's to keep his job, keep the love of his beloved town of Token, but he is being blackmailed. They have threatened to release pictures of him and a escort. A moment if weakness and it can all come crashing down! He prays that the town can band together and figure out how to eliminate the evil that is ruining everything, or he will have no choice but to band with the dark side. Politics eh.[/color] [spoiler=ALL ROLES] [spoiler=Sheriff (TOWN)] [color=grey]For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a cop, just like my father. Law enforcement has always run in the family. As a child, I remember the late nights of Dad coming home and talking to us at the dinner table. "Son, it's my job to keep the streets clean and safe, so you and the good folks in Token can live their lives without fear." My father took pride in his work, and I took pride that my dad was the one who wore the badge. Dad was good at his job. Too good. When the Mafia started feeling the pressure after he found one of their men, the Godfather took a hit out for him. I remember the day the town found him shot on the street in the town square. Everybody pointed fingers, but we all knew the culprits. On that day, the town lost a hero who stood tall for what was right. On that day, I swore a vow to my father to continue his work. The badge that my father wore now sits proud against my chest. There is no mercy for people who try to hurt the innocent citizens. This is my town now.[/color] [color=green]Sheriff (TOWN)[/color] Check one person each night for suspicious activity. Any Mafia members except the Godfather, along with anyone that was framed by a Framer, will appear as a Mafia member. A Serial Killer will be found alongside the Mafia. You will also receive the Lookouts results. Investigation Message. "Your target is not suspicious." "Your target is a member of the Mafia!" [/spoiler] [spoiler=Investigator (TOWN)] [color=grey]The Investigator carefully selects the person in question by day, then sneaks off to the house of the accused at night. Peeking in through a open window, he is stunned to see knives lining the walls of the house, blood-stained and gleaming in the moonlight. That's all the investigator needs to see before he leaves quickly. He is convinced he has found a Serial Killer, and makes sure to call him out by day. The "Serial Killer" panics and quickly claims he is a doctor, doing his job. With the help of the Town, the "doctor" is quickly lynched, as the Town crowds around the person as they look for hints of their role. Medical files fall out of the pocket of the dead body, as medication is loosely held in the dead man's hands. One person slowly looks up and points an accusing finger at the Investigator, before loudly and clearly stating: "Lynch him."[/color] [color=green]Investigator (TOWN)[/color] Investigate someone each night for a hint of their role. You will be given three possible roles that your target may be. If your target has been framed, you will be given false information. You will also receive the Sheriffs results. Investigation Message. "Your target is either (____ , ____ , ____ )" [/spoiler] [spoiler=Lookout (TOWN)][color=grey]The Lookout quickly made his way to the Investigator's house. The Investigator had called out the Godfather earlier that day, and with the Doctor dead, he was in a lot of trouble. He clambered his way up the Investigator's house and crawled along the roof, until he was over the front door, looking down. He was betting someone was going to try and finish off the Investigator tonight for sure, and so he lay down to hide himself as best as he could in the dark of the night, and waited. He waited five minutes. He waited ten minutes. He waited fifteen minutes. He waited twenty minutes. His eyes never left the front door, not even for a split second. After about an hour or two, there was a rustling noise behind the house, and it did not go unnoticed by the Lookout. Carefully, he maneuvered his way across the roof to the back of the house and watched. A shadowy figure emerged from the undergrowth and disappeared through the back door of the Investigator's house. He only saw him for a split second, but he knew from the shape of their head just who that person was. There was a gunshot and a cry of pain. The Investigator had been shot, and the intruder quickly zipped out the back of the house. Less than five minutes later, another figure approached the back. The Lookout knew this person as well, from his height or lack thereof. A minute later, there was a strangled cry from the house and this figure too disappeared. The Lookout hurriedly wrote down who had visited the Investigator on this night and kept waiting, but nobody else came. The next morning, the Investigator was found dead with both a bullet wound and a stab wound. Both mafia and Serial Killer had taken a turn on him. The Lookout quickly consulted his notes to check the names of both people and then exclaimed his findings to the town. The Serial Killer was lynched that day, while the Mafioso was shot dead by the Vigilante, both killed thanks to the Lookout's dedication to watching the Investigator's house all night.[/color] [color=green]Lookout (TOWN)[/color] Watch someone at night to see who visits them. You will also receive the Investigators results. If someone other than you visits your target, you will receive the message: "____ visited your target last night!" or "Your target visited ____ last night!" [/spoiler] [spoiler=Veteren (TOWN)] [color=grey]The pain in his knee flared up again. The Veteran scowled at it. He didn't mind the pain, but he could have done without the memories it brought. The cursed Battle of Barrow Hill. He shuddered. So many people died that day. Yes, they had won ultimately, but the price for victory had been high. The Veteran had seen friend after friend fall to gunshots or explosions, unable to save them. After the war he had settled in a small town called Token to find some peace, but it wasn't meant to be. Lately town members have been disappearing, sometimes found brutally murdered in their homes. "Human nature never changes", thought the Veteran. He knew the shape of the world, knew how it worked. But he'd be damned if he accepted it without a fight. Jaw clenched he dismantled and cleaned his old rifle. A fine piece of craftsmanship from years gone by. Old as it was, it still packed a punch. "And so do I", thought the Veteran. "Sooner or later they'll come for me. And when they do, I'll be ready." With a satisfying clicking sound he put the last piece of the rifle back together. [/color] [color=green]Veteran (TOWN)[/color] Decide whether or not to be on alert during the night. On alert, you will kill all your visitors. They could be innocent town folk though. You have 3 alerts. [color=orange]+100 tokens earned if you kill a mafia/serial killer.[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Vigilante (TOWN)][color=grey]Taking the law into your hands hadn't been the plan. No, not at first. As the Sheriff's right hand man, you were sure that you would bring members of The Mafia and Serial Killer to justice. No villain against the town would escape you or the Sheriff's watchful eye. Gun always at the ready, you were more than ready to rid the town of evil. Until one day, when left at the office alone, you found it. A large envelope with the Sheriff's name on it, stuffed to the brim with cash. Your stomach plummeted when you recognized The Mafia's insignia gracing the seal. Dropping your badge on the desk, you walk away from that life, promising yourself that you would do whatever it takes to deliver true justice to the town of Token, your trusty gun at your side.[/color] [color=green]Vigilante (TOWN)[/color] Choose to take justice in your own hands and shoot someone. If you shoot a Town member, you will die from guilt the following night phase. You have 2 bullets. [color=orange]+100 tokens earned if you shoot a mafia/serial killer.[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Bodygaurd (TOWN)] [color=grey]The Bodyguard shifted his cigarette from one corner of his mouth to the other and placed his kevlar vest over his undershirt. He was certainly going to need it tonight, he thought. He carefully set the smoldering cigarette in an ashtray as he strapped the vest tight. It had a few dents in it from previous close encounters. He tucked the cigarette back into the corner of his mouth and grabbed his white dress shirt and began to button it. "Gonna be one hell of a night," he chuckled to himself, "one for the record books for sure." He took an extended drag before grabbing his suit jacket. His mother always did say he looked good in pinstripe. But this was going to run smoothly, he told himself. His target and him had discussed the protection plan in depth. No way a single assailant could get him, and that's something the Bodyguard was willing to bet his life on. After checking his pistol he slid it into his jacket pocket. He picked the comb off his dresser and made some minor last minute adjustments to his balding hair. He placed it down and stared into the mirror. He could see his age finally catching up with him as his eyes drifted to his favorite thing on his dresser. He picked up the framed picture of his deceased wife and gave it a quick kiss before putting it back down. He extinguished the cigarette into the ashtray with one hand as he put on his sunglasses with the other. He grabbed the tacked-up picture of the Mayor and walked out of the door.[/color] [color=green]Bodyguard (TOWN)[/color] Decide whether to protect a person from death each night. If they are attacked, you will kill an attacker and they will kill you, but your target will live. Attackers will receive a message saying. "Your targets defence was too high".[/spoiler] [spoiler=Doctor (TOWN)][color=grey]His first-aid kit dangled from his lanky fingers as he ran to his destination, the full moon beating down on his head. Time was of the essence. The town Doctor was prepared for what he saw inside of the broken-down grey house. He kicked open the door. His father was a Serial Killer, and just like him, he had the odd desire of comfort in the cold darkness of night, but he had taken a different interest in knives. He knows the smell. The house reeked of blood. He cautiously stepped further into the house, only to see a man splayed out on the floor. The man looked around the room, confused and slightly scared. The Doctor set his kit down next to the twitching man, and proceeded to get his tools. The man's torso and legs had been torn open. He grabs the needle and string from his kit and swallows down bile, ready to sew together the remains of this death-fearing man. This was the work of the towns new serial killer. The rumours of Token Town are that the good town Doctor is the Serial Killer, but thankfully the victims can dispel those rumours. If they live![/color] [color=green]Doctor (TOWN)[/color] Heal one person each night. If they are attacked, you will heal them, granting them Powerful Defense for a night. You have one self-heal, also granting you Powerful Defense for a night. If someone attacked your target, you will be notified by the moderator. Attackers will receive a message saying. "Your targets defence was too high". [color=orange]+100 tokens earned if you save someone who was attacked.[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Escort (TOWN)][color=grey]The Godfather was fuming. The Vigilante had gotten a lucky shot on his Mafioso, and he aimed to get the Vigilante back before he could find the mafia's Framer as well. That fool had revealed himself to the town, like he was expecting a parade in his honour for shooting the Mafioso. He instructed the Framer to frame the Jester, in hopes the town investigative found it and decided to lynch him, thus hurting themselves. The Framer nodded and walked out, while the Godfather prepared the very weapon he'd passed onto the Mafioso before. He would get the Vigilante back for this. Before he can leave however, the lovely Escort finds her way into his home. Completely distracted by her looks, he stops what he was doing while the Escort encourages him to share a drink with her. The Godfather decides a drink wouldn't hurt, and humours her request. As they're almost finished with their drinks however, a shot cracks through the house and hits the Godfather square in the shoulder. The Vigilante was taking another guess. The Escort, startled quickly runs out of the house, yelling that somebody had been shot. The next morning, the Escort reveals to the town that she had kept the Godfather home all night and nobody had died. The proven Vigilante confirms he shot the Godfather, and yet there the Godfather was, still alive. Before the Godfather knows it, he's on trial with confirmed townsfolk designating him as the Godfather. The Escort cheekily blows him a kiss, exclaiming "Better luck next time, sweetie." and it's the last thing the Godfather sees and hears before the rope tightens around his neck and he is hung.[/color] [color=green]Escort (TOWN)[/color] Distract someone each night to block them from using their night ability. If you role block a Serial Killer you will be killed. [color=orange]You get paid +50 tokens for each client garuanteed. :)[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Transporter (TOWN)][color=grey]He was once a promising street racer. Never strived for wealth or power. All he wanted was to drive without any restraint. Somehow news of him reached the Godfathers ears and his whole life took a turn. The Mafia told him he would just be the getaway driver and in exchange he can get all the cars he wants and drive as fast as he can. Everything went smoothly for a while. He would drive and would not think of what the others were doing. It was just him and the open road. But then one night he got distracted. While he was waiting in his car an Escort caught his eye. She was beautiful. They talked the night and he was on cloud nine, but his night of excitement was cut short. Turns out his Mafia brethren were in a crazy old Veteran's house and they would have needed his help. His foolishness caused the death of a Mafioso . The Godfather wasn't happy. The next day a new appointed mafioso was sent to kill the Escort. He had no choice but to drive him... He had to do it...She was killed. He didn't sleep that night, he was angry, he was ashamed. The Godfather wasn't going to get the best of him, break him, turn him evil. He would try to get the Mafia to kill each other by switching people around at night, to get OUT![/color] [color=green]Transporter (TOWN)[/color] Choose two people to transport at night, including yourself. Transporting two people swaps all targets against them. Your targets will know they were transported. You can not be role-blocked by Escort.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Jailor (TOWN)] [color=grey]The Jailor, a hardened ex-warden of one of the country's toughest prisons was asked by his childhood friend, the Mayor, to come to Token to help with the threat of the mafia. Now he secretly detains suspicious people in a cell under his house, rendering them useless for the night while he squeezes information out of them. Taking every precaution to preserve his identity (including voice modifiers and blindfolding suspects), the only thing that makes the Jailor shudder is the thought of jailing the man with the knives.[/color] [color=green]Jailor (TOWN)[/color] Jail someone each night. Jailing a player, role blocks their night action, and any action on them while they are jailed. Jailed players are safe in jail. Attackers of your target will receive a message saying. "Your targets defence was too high". The jailor has 2 interrogations to use throughout the game on a jailed target. If you choose to interrogate the jailed player you will know their full role. If they are revealed Mafia, you will execute them. If you interrogate the Serial Killer you will die. [color=orange]+100 tokens earned if you save someone from being attacked. +100 tokens if you interrogate/kill mafia.[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Godfather (MAFIA)] [color=grey]The Godfather wasn't always a wicked man, for a long time he was a welcome member of the town in his youth. He and the Mayor were playmates in their childhood, but a disagreement lead to a bitter rivalry that exists to this day. The young man (Godfather) was known to be an up and coming town member who was generally loved and respected, and had a very good chance of being elected Mayor of the town. His rival (The Mayor) seethed in anger seeing this, as his campaigns were failing to win over the town members. The Mayor hired an Investigator possibly the Sheriff who was his cousin, to dig up some dirt on him, but they failed to find anything damning. Eventually fabricated damning evidence surfaced and horrified and disgusted the town, leading to the banishment of the young man. The young man was angry, betrayed by those he loved and cared for, and promised to get revenge on every single one of them for believing his corrupt rival over him. The Mafia at the time noticed the potential of this young man, and brought him in to the Family. As time went on, the original Godfather became very sick, and with his dying breath, he appointed the young man who became like a son to him. Brimming with a sense of darkness in his heart and a lust for revenge, the young man became the new head of the Family, and returned to his home town with his new-found Family backing him to kill those who turned him into a hard-hearted criminal, and more specifically, the corrupt Mayor. [/color] [color=red]Godfather (MAFIA)[/color] Choose to kill someone each night. You can not be killed at night. Your defence is to powerful. If you are lynched the Framer will replace you first. Attackers will receive a message saying. "Your targets defence was too high".[/spoiler] [spoiler=Framer (MAFIA)][color=grey]"I've found evidence linking her to the Mafia!" the venerable Sheriff declared as he pointed to the confused Escort . He then pulled out a handful of crumpled notes, detailing the locations of shady out-of-town meetings at night and written in blood-red ink while starting his 'death to the Mafia' spiel. The Escort tried to defend herself to the best of her abilities, claiming that one would have to be an abject fool to think that those notes could correlate to the Mafia, but fortunately (or unfortunately, in the Escort 's case), the Sheriff's years of experience led him to believe that he really had genuine info. He led the Escort 's execution, and then realized as she breathed her last... she was framed. Her last will held not her words of dedication to the Mafia... just the words of the deceased townsfolk. The Framer noted the irony in the Sheriff's spiel with his fellow Mafia comrades while the rest of the town turned a blind eye to the incognito Mafia, and one of the brave citizens shouted out loud to jail and execute the Sheriff for his mistake. As the meeting for the day concluded and almost everyone went back to their homes, the Framer congratulated himself on what he had accomplished. Who knew where a few old documents could get you?[/color] [color=red]Framer (MAFIA)[/color] Choose a target to frame each night. Framed people will show up as members of the Mafia to a Sheriff for that night, and an investigator will get no accurate clues.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Consigliere (MAFIA)][color=grey]The Godfather's right hand man, who can gather dirt better than the Investigator himself. Once an Investigator himself, the law was too muddy for him. Either they were the best for them, or the worst, not to mention the pay was awful. But when he joined the Mafia, it all became much clearer. They were either with us or against us, clear cut and dry, not to mention the pay and the connections. When he was an Investigator, it was all jokes about how he couldn't tell a Vigilante from a Transporter, but not now. He commands respect wherever he goes, and no one dare disrespect him. If they did the Mafia would soon have their number, and nothing good comes from that. The Mafia's own private eye, along with his new best buddy the Framer, both worked in harmony together to gather intel and frame a target at the Godfathers command. An Investigator gone wrong, an integral part of a good Mafia team.[/color] [color=red]Consigliere (MAFIA)[/color] Check a person each night for their exact role. Sort of like an Investigator, but with the addition of the exact role instead of 3 possible roles. You will become the Godfather if original Godfather and the Framer are dead.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Blackmailer (MAFIA)] [color=grey]As a photographer, the Blackmailer was just a simple man, taking pictures of people doing the things they did. Some of these pictures were actually embarrassing pictures that can ruin a person's life and reputation to the Town. The Mafia had found out about the Blackmailer and the photographs he used and they knew that they can use him and his photographs to their advantage of taking over the Town. They had asked the Blackmailer if he had some sort of dirt on anyone that would keep them silent for at least one day and of course, he had some sort of dirt on the person they asked, even the Mayor. They had asked to see the picture and the Blackmailer showed them a picture of the Mayor late at night with the Town Escort. The Mafia knew that they needed the Blackmailer and that night before Mafia had went out to do their business, a yellow envelope laid in front of the Mayor's house with the picture of the Mayor and the Escort, saying: "Keep quiet or I place this on everyone's doorstep tomorrow..."[/color] [color=red]Blackmailer (MAFIA)[/color] Choose one person each night to blackmail. You can not blackmail the same player twice. Blackmailed targets can not talk during the day, therefore can not participate to Lynch for that day and they will be roleblocked that night. Your target will get the message "You have been blackmailed by the Mafia. You can not lynch today. You are roleblocked tonight." If you visit a Veteran on alert and you are killed, they will still be blackmailed the next day. You will become the Godfather if you are the last Mafia. [/spoiler] [spoiler=Survivor (NEUTRAL)][color=grey]Haunted by his past, the Survivor locks himself in a room and just wishes to live. The Survivor was once a responsible Bodyguard, who protected the Mayor night after night. Until one dark night: the Bodyguard was foolish enough to yield to a beautiful Escort, who dazzled him with her seductive moves. Unfortunately, the next morning, the Mayor was found dead. His killers, the Mafia, went on a rampage soon after and destroyed everyone in their path. One man from the massacre had survived: the Bodyguard. And ever since that day, he has confined himself to his mind, beating himself up over the fact that he could have prevented all of this from happening, if it hadn't been for that Escort. To this day, the Bodyguard–now Survivor–keeps four bulletproof vests that represent each party that played a role in the massacre. One for the Town, who all died in the slaughter. One for the Mafia, who led them to their deaths. One for the abandoned souls, who kept to themselves. And the final one for himself, to remind him of his selfishness. He saved himself, and his friends paid the price. The Survivor's mind is clouded with the thoughts of his past, but one thing is clear for him: he must survive.[/color] [color=purple]Survivor (NEUTRAL)[/color] Put on a bulletproof vest at night, protecting yourself from attacks. You have four vests to use. Survive the whole game to win. You win when all offensive night kill roles are eliminated. If you are attacked while wearing a vest, attackers will receive a message saying. "Your targets defence was too high". [color=orange]You get paid +25 tokens for each day survived. (If survives till the end, still wins a token pool split with faction winners)[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Jester (NEUTRAL)][color=grey]He'd been born with a curse. At every waking hour demons whispered in his ears, telling him to do things, terrible things. In the beginning he was strong, he resisted their words. But then one day a town member turned up dead. The next day another one. The members of the town kept dying, always at night, always when he was sleeping. Ready to be controlled by any demon who wished to do harm. He tried staying awake, but ultimately he always fell asleep, and the next day a new body were always found. One day, the town charged a man with the murder of his victims. Silently he stood by as they lynched him. He turned out to be innocent, of course. The guilt drove him mad - not only was he a murderer, he was turning the members of the town against each other! The next day he confessed his crime to everyone who would listen. Immediately they brought her to the town square and executed him. 'The town is safe', were his final words. But the next day another town member died. Again the town had executed an innocent person. One man, who'd driven for the execution of the cursed one the most, ended his life out of guilt. He were the only town member he'd caused the death of.[/color] [color=purple]Jester (NEUTRAL)[/color] Trick the Town into voting against you. Haunt a person who voted guilty if you are lynched, killing them. A Transporter can direct the haunt onto someone else who did not vote guilty, but only if you selected that person to haunt. Jester wins his own game when he is successfully lynched. Game does not finish for the rest. [color=orange]You get paid +500 tokens for completed mission. (If survives till the end, still wins a token pool split with faction winners)[/color] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Serial Killer (NEUTRAL)][color=grey]"Oh, he is such a nice guy." This was one of the most frequent things said about the man who lived in the small house at the end of Smithy Road. Always quiet and wellspoken. Always polite. And yet, no one knew him very well. He had no hobbies they knew of, he kept mostly to himself and seemed to have no close friends among the town members. Had any of them watched the man more closely, they might have noticed a few strange things about him. For example, he often went on a little stroll in the middle of the night. He also owned four large freezers, which he kept in his basement. Even more odd, they had locks on them. And if any of the town members had followed the man on one of his nightly strolls, they would have been likely to see a completely different man, a man behind the pleasant mask he showed to gullible town's folk in the sunlight. But of course none of them did. No one suspected him at all. He was safe. And he could continue his work. Oh yes, he had a mission. He would cleanse this town one by one. And when his grand work of art was finished and this town finally purified, he would be free and could finally rest. Finally be at peace. The man smiled contentedly as he donned his cloak and headed out into the night.[/color] [color=blue]Serial Killer (NEUTRAL)[/color] Kill someone each night. If an Escort role blocks you, you will kill them instead of your target, even if you didn't select one in the first place. You can not kill the Godfather or anyone with a powerful defense. eg: Someone saved by the doctor, or bodygaurd. If you are attacked your attackers will receive a message saying.

Serial Killer, Survivor, Godfather, Transporter, Jester, . . . . . . . . . I really want to be a serial killer, I'll buy it for 1000 tokens!! thanks.[/color] [/spoiler]

Just a few things, First I don't really like the Jesters win clause, especially as you get to choose roles, the Jester would be at the bottom of everyone's list. Seriously who would want to be a player who's aim is TO DIE and then the game continues. Perhaps the Jester could have a vote shield. This means he would start on negative 5 votes or something and his aim is to survive till the end. It makes sense, one neutral can't die at night, one is extremely difficult to lynch during the day. Secondly I don't understand what the transporter does, please elaborate. And finally should the person who has been blackmailed be allowed to talk but the blackmailer has to decide his vote? I don't know about this and never seen anything like this before so I don't know. If the person is allowed to talk then they shouldn't be allowed to say they have been blackmailed ever because then people can work out mafia by who hasn't been blackmailed. That is a complicated one. Just thought of another thing. With the inspector are the wrong roles given at random, because they should be.

All these roles are from the mafia game town of salem with only slight tweaks if there are any. so i know it works. but they are really fast games that happen in minutes. The Transporter switches players. he chooses two targets at night (can choose himself as one) which swaps any night actions on them also. eg. if Mafia chose to kill A, but the transporter switched A with B, then the Mafia's target will be B and B will be killed. I seriously like playing the jester when i play town of salem, and it would be closer to the top end of my picks. Trying to get lynched isn't easy. The fun part is deliberately making fumbles so that players suspect you are Mafia/Serial killer, but if you aren't getting lynched you still want to get rid of Mafia/Serial killer, because they can kill you at night. Blackmailer. There are 4 mafia vs 13 others. It may take a while to narrow it down, and the process of elimination is the strategy for all players. With the inspector you receive 3 possible roles. One out of the 3 is always correct, unless your target was framed and you get 3 false roles. The false ones are random. With the inspector you get 3 roles. One out of the 3 is always correct, unless your target was framed and you get 3 false roles. The false ones are random. The main tweaks i did from town of salem format, is to give the investigative trio, (investigator/sheriff/lookout) some extra info to help with the process of elimination. I see what you mean about the blackmailer. I havent actually had that role on town of salem but I think with the amount of players it will take a while before you realize who the blackmailer is, if he hasn't been gotten already.

I've got an interesting idea based to Mario VS Bowser just because, well the idea fits with it. [spoiler=Mario VS Bowser mafia]So normal mafia rules apply with a night an day phase with a main twist, Mario and Bowser are known from the beginning and all other players are items. Mario and Bowser start with 3 lives. At the beginning of the game (N0) Mario and Bowser collect one or maybe 2 items (first come, first serve). Once they have been collected an item the item join their team and can then use their power to help Mario/Bowser. Then you can either try to vote someones item off or try and vote for Bowser or Mario. Then Night 1 Mario and Bowser can try and collect more items and owned items can use night moves. [spoiler=Roles]Mario - Known player who collects items and hs 3 lives Bowser - Known play who collects items and has 3 lives 15+ players - Donkey Kong - Known player who collects items and has 3 lives 20+ players - Wario - Known player who collects items and has 3 lives. 1up Mushroom - When collected gives owner extra life Mega Mushroom - Owners vote counts as 3 Mini Mushroom - Gives owner a voteshield of negative 3 Hover Hat - Inspect 1 user. Ice Flower - Distract 1 user Star - Protect 1 user at night Boo - Steal a random item from Mario/Bowser/Donkey Kong/ Wario Kamek - Steal a USER of your choice and bring them onto your team 11-15 players Bullet Bill - Kill one USER during night phase, Can't be distracted or protected Green Shell - 1/3 chance of killing someone at night Red Shell - Kills random USER Tanooki Tail - Choose someone to protect, if sucessful then kills attacker 16-20 players False Crate - Choose player to false item, if a character player goes to collect him then they lose a life Ztar - Choose a player, for that day their vote counts as zero. Fire Flower - Let one user act twice in one night. Spiney Shell - During the day reveal one item to everyone[/spoiler] [/spoiler] Thoughts?

i have to admit, i've tried a few times to understand how it works how it would work but i'm easily distracted and I still havent figured it out lol.

Hey guys, I'm just trying to figure out what roles I want in my game. It will be a simple one but not sure what third party to choose. [spoiler=Roles] Doctor x 1 Action: Protect Inspector x 1 Action Inspect Vigilante x 1 Action: One Shot Campers x 6: No action (villagers) Alchemist x 1 Action: Distract (like the clown but he's on the mafias side, puts someone to sleep so they cant do their night action) Rebel x 2 Action: Team Kill [b]Not sure which to choose.[/b] Fool x 1 Action: Wants to be lynched, like your jester, also visits people but visits do nothing lol. Can win with village but wins less points. Survivor x 1 Action: nothing, wins if he's alive at the end, wins with mafia or village. Unsure about this, I kinda want it so they're not allowed to claim their role, not sure Miller x 1 Action: no action, wins with village, thinks he's village but when he's lynched he appears to be mafia. If mafia kill him everyone will see he is the miller. [/spoiler] That's about the same amount of players you guys had, any opinion? I think I like Miller most but wanted to run the character by someone anyways just in case :)

Not sure if I should have another mafia and villager or what either

I think i like miller too.

Again, I'm don't particulary like the fool condition but it could work if everyone knows he exists. However I really like Miller. That could produce some great confusion especially as village will make plans to kill one mafia but 2 will be living. Also, make sure the Miller doesn't know he's miller. Give him a camper role PM otherwise that could defeat the purpose if Miller claims Miller just before he dies.

One mafia game I enjoyed, which was classified as EXPERT, was actually fun and simple. No teams, but there are 2 players hard to kill at night who everyone is wanting to get. It's a 10 player game Free For All, last man standing. [b]WILD WILD WEST[/b]. The set up is the same as the original that @@BETA and @@Sygmassacre hosted, except I've added that you earn an extra lynch vote if you successfully kill someone, and you can purchase defensive lynch votes as an item. I think the original game had an end game flaw with the lynches, so this might be a fix. [spoiler=WILD WEST THEME] There are 8 [b][color=green]Rouges[/color][/b] and 2 [b][color=red]Slickter Rouges[/color][/b]. [b][color=green]Rouges[/color][/b] have a gun, and a bag of items. Items include. 1. [b]Bullet[/b] (1 x use) 2. [b]Disposable Bullet Proof Vest[/b] (1 x use) 3. Money Allowance (each night you are given an allowance to purchase one item) [b]Purchase Items[/b] are: [b]Bullet[/b] (1 x use) [b]Disposable Bullet Proof Vest[/b] (1 x use) [b]Defensive Lynch vote[/b] (eg: If you have accumulated 2 defenive lynch votes, it will require 3 positive votes against you to count as 1 lynch vote against you) You can accumulate a surplus of items if you kill someone stealing their items. [b][color=red] Slickter Rouges[/color][/b] have 1 [b]Disposable [color=red]Reflective[/color] Bullet Proof Vest[/b], and Money Allowance each night to buy another DRBPV. [b]NIGHT PHASE[/b] There is an ACTION & PURCHASE phase. ACTION must be made first. Each night send Host a message with the following ACTION. [b]Protect[/b] Protect yourself [b]Shoot (USER) [/b] Shoot a player [b]Save [/b] saving your items. You can do multiple actions depending on how many items you own. eg: If you have 2 bullet proof vests you can wear both bullet proof vests protecting you from 2 bullets. After you have done your action you can PURCHASE an Item. [b]DAY PHASE[/b] Send someone to the Lynch Post. Slicksters will become more dangerous the longer they live. [b]GAME DYNAMICS[/b] All defensive actions take priority. Shooting action priorty goes by time stamp. eg: If you and another player shoot the same person, the first shooter will collect his items, the second shooter will be shooting a dead body. When you kill someone, you also steal their lynch vote for the following day. Meaning your vote will be +2 for the following day only. It is possible to kill multiple players. Negative lynch votes purchased or take off someone shot, carry through to all rounds. Bullet proof vests only protect you from one bullet. A DRBVP will kill reflect and shoot the person who shot. You can collect a DRBVP from killing an unprotected slickster and have it as an item. [b]ABBREVIATIONS [/b] DBPV = Disposable Bullet Proof Vest DRBVP = Disposable Reflective Bullet Proof Vest [/spoiler] just a gauge of interest or flaws and ideas to throw at it

So a few questions, this was probably one of the only games in season one that I didn't join so I don't know the dynamics very well. If 2 people shoots the same unprotected person, 1. Who gets their items? 2. Who gets their vote? If 2 people shoot the same protected person with 1 DBPV, whos shoot will kill the person?

time stamp. first person.

which i feel could be unfair depending on who's time it's going by. yeah. that's the concerning part, but i don't think it was an issue the first game. not that i noticed. i'd be sure to have a set time with day/night phases that is suitable for everyone.

Ever since the Spades game where everyone has been given a specific role, it has made it too easy for village to win. Star Wars was different because there was alternate roles, but it almost made it too easy for mafia to win. I think we need to try out some games where there are just villagers with no known number, etc.

This is nice also
